The motor neuron disease (MND) is a group of progressive degenerative neurological disorders affecting only the motor neurons, which are the cells that control voluntary muscle activity. The motor neurons are damaged in the brain and spinal cord. It is also known as anterior horn cell disease (in India), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig’s disease (named after a famous baseball player in USA). MND causes muscle weakness which spreads all over the body, resulting in difficulty in walking, hand movements, standing up, bending, speaking, swallowingandbreathing.
Medical science has not yet found a definite cause of MND in 90%of patients, so they are labeled as ‘sporadic’ means no family history of MND. In these cases there is no identifiable genetic defect or any other cause.
